Kast 2 HU

Maarten Van Severen, 2005

Designer Maarten Van Severen placed special emphasis on the colours of the sliding doors when developing Kast. These emphasise the harmonious proportions of the storage unit and give it a fresh and optimistic look. The two-module version of the Kast unit features high-quality materials and plenty of useful storage space.

Modular in structure, the Kast storage unit starts with a sideboard as the base version. For the medium-height version, a second base module is placed on top to create a shelf/wall cabinet combination. In the tallest version, two simple and sturdy wooden elements are added. Maarten Van Severen paid special attention to the colours of the sliding doors, which not only emphasise the proportions of Kast but also give it a fresh and optimistic feeling.

The designer Maarten Van Severen started creating furniture in the mid-1980s, initially producing the pieces himself in his Ghent workshop. His designs are characterised by their simple form and superb comfort. The collaboration with Vitra began in 1996, resulting in the Van Severen Collection.
